“Simulating
illusionistically complex decorative systems made of architecture and painted
sculptures, of fake easel paintings and tapestries (behind which is a
conceptual plot of meanings resulting from the complicated web of allegorical,
mythological and historical themes) Salviati gave another proof of the great
expressive features of Mannerism”(Carlo Bertelli, Giuliano Briganti, Antonio
Giuliano)
